Makeshift Auto Camping with Ford Model T Cars, circa 1925
Add to SetSummary
Like many Americans during the 1920s, these two couples, their children, and a family dog, answered the call of the open road. The families have set up in an open field while auto touring. Auto tourists stopped at their leisure alongside the road or in newly created autocamps to spend the night before moving on.
